The most abundant and biologically active female hormone is estrogen, primarily in the form of estradiol. It plays a crucial role in regulating the menstrual cycle, supporting reproductive health, and influencing various physiological processes, including bone density and cardiovascular health. Estrogen is produced mainly in the ovaries, but also in smaller amounts by other tissues such as the adrenal glands and fat cells. Its balance is essential for overall female health and well-being.

Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) is the hormone that stimulates female egg production in the ovaries. It plays a key role in the growth and maturation of ovarian follicles, which contain the developing eggs.
